Welcome back to another Beautiful Blossoms monthly challenge!! Are you having fun and getting inspired? I know I am!
This month's photo inspiration is so cheery! I love sunflowers! I also love the color of blue this vase has. So pretty!
I chose to use the sunflower colors as my inspiration and play off those cheery yellows they have.
I chose to use a stamp from Flourishes, a company that went out of business years ago, and colored it in with Copics. I matted that over some Kraft Cardstock and rounded the Kraft paper's corners. I paired my image with some yellow design paper (I cannot seem to find it anywhere or I'd name it), and used a corner punch to clip the corners into a decorative design. I added some peachy orange grosgrain ribbon and bow, and then added a sentiment from Simple Stories.
I rather like how it turned out. Clean, simple, and cute. Just the way I like them. I like my cards with minimal fuss so the images can take center stage. But every now and then, I'll fancy it up for fun.
Thank you for stopping by and I'll see you here for next month's Beautiful Blossoms Challenge photo!
Your card is really beautiful! I love it! ❤️
